The first step – Preparing your Amazon Fire TV Stick

TVMucho will soon release a dedicated Amazon app that shall work on both Amazon Fire TV Stick and Kindle. For now, you can sideload the Android app on your Amazon Fire TV Stick. It’s quite easy to sideload the TVMucho app from your Android phone or tablet and watch it on your Amazon Fire TV Stick. Just follow the instructions and you’ll do it with no problems at all:

Boot into the Amazon Fire TV Stick and go to Settings > System. Check the image below to see just what you need to do and where to go. If you have a different image, please comment below on the post and we shall immediately respond with an update just for you.

Furthermore, when you enter the System menu scroll down and you will see the sub-menu labeled “Developer Options”. The subtext will highlight the Developer Options for “Enable ADB connections over network”.

Click Save and now you have two options to transfer your apps. You can click on the + symbol that is in the circle in the upper right corner and select any APK file on your Android through the file browser. The APK doesn’t have to be installed on your device; it can just be downloaded. The second way to transfer your apps works only on installed applications from the Google Play Store. Tap on the menu button and select “Upload Apps.”

Select an app by tapping on it and it will automatically transfer.

There is only one problem because the Apps2Fire doesn’t have a feedback mechanism for version failure. Thus, if you upload a new app that isn’t compatible with Android 4.4.2 you won’t receive an error message and your app won’t work. However, the TVMucho app is compatible with Android 4.4.2 so don’t worry about that.

That said, it’s a really easy way to transfer apps with no command line work necessary. Let’s take a look at where to find your apps once you’ve transferred them to the Amazon Fire TV Stick.

Step 3 – Launching Your App on the Fire TV

Launching the TVMucho or any other Android app on your Amazon Fire TV Stick is quite easy. When you install the TVMucho or any other app all that is left is to find them on your Amazon Fire TV Stick:

Click on the “Manage Installed Applications”. Browse to the TVMucho (or desired app) and select it by pressing the centre button on your Fire TV remote. See the image below for a visual guide.
